Notes to Semiannual Financial Statements 1. Basis of Presentation Japan Finance Organization for Municipalities (hereinafter, JFM ) has prepared semiannual financial statements in accordance with the Japan Finance Organization for Municipalities Law (Law No. 64, 2007; hereinafter the Law ), the ordinances based on the Law and other regulations applicable to JFM and accounting principles and practices applicable to semiannual financial statements generally accepted in Japan, which are different in certain respects as to the application and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards. Since JFM does not have any subsidiaries or affiliates, it does not prepare consolidated semiannual financial statements. Amounts less than 1 million yen have been omitted. As a result, the totals in Japanese yen shown in the semiannual financial statements do not necessarily agree with the sum of the individual amounts. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (1) Securities Heldtomaturity securities are carried at amortized cost (straightline method). (2) Derivative transactions Derivative transactions are carried at fair value with changes in unrealized gain or loss charged or credited to income, except for those which meet the criteria for hedge accounting. (3) Depreciation and amortization (a) Tangible fixed assets Depreciation of tangible fixed assets is calculated by the straightline method based on the estimated useful lives and the residual value determined by management. The estimated useful lives of major items are as follows: Buildings: 23 to 47 Others: 2 to 19 (b) Intangible fixed assets Amortization of intangible fixed assets is calculated by the straightline method based on the estimated useful lives and the residual value determined by management. Software for internal use owned by JFM is amortized over 5. (4) Deferred assets Bond issuance costs are expensed in full when incurred. (5) Translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies into Japanese yen Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, for which foreign currency swaps or foreign exchange forward contracts are used to hedge the risk of foreign currency fluctuation, are translated at the contracted rate as these swap contracts or the forward contracts qualify for deferral hedge accounting. (6) Reserves (a) Reserve for possible loan losses JFM has never experienced any loan losses. Accordingly, no reserve for possible loan losses has been maintained. (b) Reserve for bonuses The reserve for bonuses is provided for payment of bonuses to employees, in the amount of estimated bonuses, which are attributable to the semiannual period. (c) Reserve for bonuses for directors and corporate auditors The reserve for bonuses for directors and corporate auditors is provided for payment of bonuses to directors and corporate auditors, in the amount of estimated bonuses, which are attributable to the semiannual period. (d) Reserve for retirement benefits The reserve for retirement benefits is provided for payment of retirement benefits to employees, in the amount deemed accrued at the end of the semiannual period, based on the projected retirement benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets at the end of the semiannual period. The reserve for retirement benefits and pension expenses are calculated using the simplified method, which assumes JFM s retirement benefit obligation to be equal to the benefits payable if all eligible employees voluntarily terminated their employment at the end of the semiannual period. (e) Reserve for retirement benefits for directors and corporate auditors The reserve for retirement benefits for directors and corporate auditors is provided for payment of retirement benefits to directors and corporate auditors, in the amount deemed accrued at the end of the semiannual period based on the internal policies. (7) Hedge accounting (a) Hedge accounting method Interest rate swaps used to hedge the risk of interest rate fluctuations that qualify for hedge accounting and meet specific matching criteria are not measured at fair value, but the differential paid or received under the swap agreements is recognized and included in interest expense or income. If swap contracts or forward contracts used to hedge the risk of foreign currency fluctuation qualify for deferral hedge accounting, the foreign currencydenominated assets and liabilities are translated at the contracted rate. (b) Hedging instruments and hedged items (ⅰ) Hedging instruments Interest rate swaps Hedged items Bonds and longterm borrowed money (ⅱ) Hedging instruments Currency swaps Hedged items Foreign currencydenominated bonds 6

(ⅲ) Hedging instruments Foreign exchange forward contracts Hedged items Foreign currencydenominated bank deposits (c) Hedging policy JFM uses hedging instruments as a means of hedging exposure to interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk. Hedged items are identified by each individual contract. As a means of hedging foreign exchange fluctuation risks associated with the receipt of interest and principal of foreign currencydenominated bank deposits, a foreign exchange forward contract is entered into at the time of each deposit by JFM. (d) Assessment of hedge effectiveness JFM ensures hedging instruments and hedged items have the same major terms when entering into hedge transactions to offset market fluctuation risks associated with bonds and longterm borrowed money. Accordingly, JFM deems these to be highly effective and thus does not assess effectiveness. Moreover, a periodic assessment of hedge effectiveness for interest rate swaps and currency swaps and forward contracts that qualify for deferral hedge accounting is omitted when the exceptional accrual method is applied. (8) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents in the semiannual statement of cash flows consist of Cash and bank deposits on the semiannual balance sheets. (9) Fund for lending rate reduction In accordance with the provisions of Article 46, Section 1 of the Law, JFM has established the fund for lending rate reduction to reserve contributions as stipulated in Article 322 of the Local Government Finance Law (Law No. 109, 1948). Also, pursuant to the provisions of Article 46, Section 5 of the Law, income arising from the investment of the fund (hereinafter, investment income ) is used to reduce interest rates of the loans to municipalities, and if there is any surplus in the investment income after this interest rate reduction process, the surplus amount is added to the fund. Further, pursuant to the provisions of Article 46, Section 6 of the Law, if there is any shortfall after the interest rate reduction process, the shortfall is covered by withdrawal of the fund within the limits of the total of the additional portion to the fund made up to the previous fiscal year and the contributions made in the most current fiscal year. (10) Reserve for interest rate volatility and management account reserve for interest rate volatility The reserve for interest rate volatility is set aside to prepare for interest rate risk associated with refinancing of JFM bonds (excluding the bonds issued by the former Japan Finance Corporation for Municipal Enterprises; hereinafter, the Predecessor ) pursuant to the provisions of Article 38, Sections 1 and 3 of the Law, and Article 9, Sections 8 and 10 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Law, and is calculated and accounted for based on the provisions of Article 34 of the Ministerial Ordinance on Finance and Accounting of Japan Finance Organization for Municipalities (Ordinance No. 87 of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, 2008; hereinafter, Ordinance on Finance and Accounting ) and Articles 22 and 23 of the Government Ordinance on preparation of relevant government ordinances and provisional measures for the abolishment of the Japan Finance Corporation for Municipal Enterprises Law (Government Ordinance No. 226, 2008; hereinafter, Preparation Ordinance ). The management account reserve for interest rate volatility is set aside to manage interest rate risk associated with refinancing of bonds issued by the Predecessor pursuant to the provisions of Article 9, Sections 9 and 10, and Article 13, Sections 5 and 7 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Law, and is calculated and accounted for based on the provisions of Articles 1 through 3 of the Ministerial Ordinance on the operations of the Management Account at Japan Finance Organization for Municipal Enterprises (Ordinance No. 2 of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Ministry of Finance, 2008; hereinafter, Management Account Operations Ordinance ) and Articles 3 and 5 of the Supplementary Provisions of the above ordinance. (11) Reserve for interest rate reduction Reserve for interest rate reduction is set aside to reduce interest rates on the loans made by the Predecessor to local governments pursuant to the provisions of Article 9, Section 13, and Article 13, Section 8 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Law, and Article 26, Sections 1, 3 and 4 of the Preparation Ordinance, and is calculated and accounted for based on the provisions of Article 5 of the Management Account Operations Ordinance. (12) Consumption taxes National and local consumption taxes are accounted for using the tax exclusion method. 3. Loans There are no bankrupt loans, nonaccrual loans, past due loans (three months or more), or restructured loans. Since JFM has never experienced loan losses in the past, it does not record a reserve for possible loan losses. Bankrupt loans represent loans to borrowers as defined in Article 96, Section 1, Clause 3 (a) through (e) and Clause 4 of the Enforcement Ordinance of the Corporate Income Tax Law (Government Ordinance No. 97, 1965), and on which accrued interest is not accounted in revenue as there is no expectation of collection of either principal or interest because they are past due for a considerable period of time or for other reasons (excluding loans on which bad debts are written off; hereinafter, Nonaccrual loans ). Nonaccrual loans represent loans on which accrued interest is not accounted in revenue, excluding loans to bankrupt borrowers and loans with grace periods for interest payments to assist in corporate reorganization or to support business. Past due loans (three months or more) represent loans on which payment of principal or interest is in arrears for more than three months, calculated from the day following the contractual due date, excluding bankrupt loans and nonaccrual loans. Restructured loans represent loans, given certain favorable terms and conditions, such as reduction or exemption of interest, grace periods for interest or principal payments, and debt waivers, to assist borrowers in corporate rehabilitation or to 7

support business, excluding bankrupt loans, nonaccrual loans and past due loans (three months or more). 4. Subsequent Events For the three from fiscal 2015 (1 April 2015 to 31 March 2016) through fiscal 2017, a portion of JFM s management account reserve for interest rate volatility is to be attributed to the Japanese national government, with the aim of transferring up to 600,000 million yen over this period. In fiscal 2016, 200,000 million yen has been transferred to the national treasury by JFM, pursuant to Article 14 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Law for fiscal 2016 (Ordinance No. 1 of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, and the Ministry of Finance, 2016). 5. Financial Instruments (1) Status of financial instruments (a) Policy for financial instruments In order to maintain a sound and good financial standing, as well as the solid confidence of capital markets, JFM needs to appropriately manage various risks including interest rate risk. JFM adopts an integrated risk management approach to appropriately respond to various risks while endeavoring to further advance its risk analysis and management. Accordingly, JFM has developed a system for appropriate risk management, including the establishment of the Integrated Risk Management Committee, which supervises JFM s overall risk management, and the Risk Management Office, which monitors the risks in each department. The content of risk management can then be appropriately reflected in management decisions. (b) Details and risks of financial instruments JFM makes loans to local governments. The maximum term to maturity is 40, but the majority of the funds for these loans are raised mainly through issuance of 10year bonds. Therefore, a large duration gap is created between lending and funding, and JFM is exposed to the interest rate risk associated with bond and longterm borrowed money refinancing. JFM has set aside reserves for interest rate fluctuations (the reserve for interest rate volatility), and has set up the ALM Committee separately from the Integrated Risk Management Committee to comprehensively analyze and manage JFM s assets and liabilities in a timely and appropriate manner. At the meeting, medium and longterm management analysis as well as risk analysis and evaluation are conducted through scenario analysis, VaR analysis, and duration analysis, among other methods. In addition, JFM reflects the findings in its bond issuance plans and other aspects of management and endeavors to reduce interest rate risk. (c) Risk Management for Financial Instruments (ⅰ) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of loss arising from a credit event, such as deterioration in the financial condition of a borrower, which causes an asset to lose value or become worthless. In addition to credit risk associated with loans, market transactions also involve credit risk. A. Credit risk on loans JFM extends loans exclusively to local governments. Local governments have a zero Bank of International Settlements (BIS) risk weighting and JFM does not expect any default on loans made to local governments for the reasons outlined below. JFM and the Predecessor have never experienced any loan losses. The Japanese national government includes principal and interest payments of local government bonds and loans in the expenditure of the Local Government Finance Program, and secures the total amount of local allocation tax which balances local governments total expenditures including principal and interest payments, and total revenue. Thus, the national government effectively secures revenue sources for principal and interest payments by local governments. The national government also secures revenue sources for principal and interest payments by individual local governments by including a portion of such principal and interest in the Standard Financial Needs when calculating local allocation tax. Under the consultation system for local government bonds and loans, credit reviews must include checks on the repayment status of local governments, and tax revenue and necessary revenue sources to be secured. Additionally, under the Early Warning System, the local governments whose principal and interest payments or financial deficits exceed a certain level must apply for approval to issue bonds or obtain loans, so that the credit standing of local government bonds and loans is maintained. Under the Law Relating to the Financial Soundness of Local Governments, which was promulgated in June 2007 (No. 94), local governments whose fiscal indicators exceed the early warning limits must make their own efforts toward achieving fiscal soundness, and local governments whose fiscal indicators exceed the reconstruction limits must take necessary actions to restore their finances under the supervision of the national government or the respective prefectural governments with regard to redemption of local government bonds and loans, and other operations. JFM is not subject to the Banking Law (1981, No. 59) or the Financial Reconstruction Law (1998, No. 132) but performs selfassessment of loans in accordance with the Financial Inspection Manual of the Financial Services Agency (FSA). B. Credit risk on transactions JFM is exposed to the risk of loss arising from credit events, such as deterioration in the financial condition of a counterparty, which causes an asset to lose value or become worthless. However, JFM appropriately manages credit risk of this type by constantly monitoring counterparties financial standing, taking measures including suspension of new deals and cancellation of transactions in case of a deterioration of their credit standings. 8

Moreover, JFM limits counterparties to financial institutions that achieve a certain credit rating and other criteria, and conducts transactions within the credit lines for each counterparty in order to diversify risks. In addition, JFM enters into ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association) Master Agreements and CSA (Credit Support Annex) with all derivatives counterparties to reduce credit risk. (ⅱ) Market risk Market risk is the risk of loss resulting from changes in the value of assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in risk factors such as interest rates, securities prices and foreign exchange rates, or the risk of loss resulting from changes in earnings generated from assets and liabilities. Market risk includes interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, inflation risk and price change risk. A. Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk of losses incurred or a decrease in profits due to fluctuations in interest rates when there is an interest rate or duration gap between assets and liabilities. The interest rate risk at JFM includes the interest rate risk associated with bond and borrowed money refinancing and pipeline risk. Interest rate risk associated with bond and borrowed money refinancing JFM makes loans to local governments. The maximum term to maturity is 40, but the majority of the funds for these loans are raised mainly through issuance of 10year bonds, which creates interest rate risk associated with bond refinancing. JFM takes the following measures to address the interest rate risk resulting from a duration gap between lending and funding. JFM maintains necessary reserves to cope with the interest rate risk resulting from a duration gap between lending and funding. As assets and liabilities in JFM s general account will expand as a result of lending to local governments and funding, JFM carries out an ALM analysis of this account in a timely and appropriate manner to further enhance the effectiveness of its management of interest rate risk. In order to reduce exposure to interest rate risk, JFM has established a mediumterm management target for five from fiscal 2013, in which the duration gap is to be maintained below approximately two. To achieve its objective, JFM has taken measures to manage the duration gap on liabilities issuing longer than 10year bonds under ultralow interest rate circumstances and other flexible funding operations while pursuing the best bond conditions with flexible funding operations. JFM s lending for temporary financial countermeasures funding accounts for approximately 40% of the overall outstanding loans in the general account. However, the interest rates for temporary financial countermeasures funding are revised every 5 or 10. In addition, JFM will revise its lending rate by the 30th year at the latest for its loans with maturities longer than 30, which also contributes to moderate the duration on assets (lending). The management account, which manages assets related to loans extended by the Predecessor, is currently exposed to greater interest rate risk than the general account. To address such risk, JFM contributes to the required reserves for interest rate volatility as described above. In accordance with Article 14 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Law, a portion of JFM s management account reserve for interest rate volatility is to be transferred to the Japanese national government. The transfer is scheduled to occur over a period of three from fiscal 2015 through fiscal 2017, with the aim of transferring up to 600,000 million yen. The amount of transfer is to be within the amount which the Japanese national government deems as an amount exceeding the requisite amount of reserve necessary for the smooth operation of JFM s management account at the time of transfer and in the future, in light of JFM s financial condition. Pipeline risk JFM is also exposed to pipeline risk, whereby losses would be incurred or profits decreased as a result of interest rate fluctuations during the time from when JFM raises money until the point at which the money is loaned to local governments. JFM, in principle, uses swap transactions to hedge against pipeline risk. B. Foreign exchange and other risks Various risks associated with bond principal and interest payments are hedged by swap transactions. These risks include foreign exchange risk related to foreign currencydenominated bonds and interest rate risk related to floating rate bonds. JFM s investments of surplus funds are exposed to the risk of losses on the sale of securities resulting from price declines and the risk of realized losses on foreign currencydenominated deposits resulting from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Accordingly, in principle, JFM minimizes the risk of price fluctuation by holding investments until maturity, and hedges foreign exchange risk by using foreign exchange contracts. C. Quantitative information on market risk Loans, bonds and longterm borrowed money are primarily affected by interest rate risk, which is a major risk variable among the market risks. With respect to loans, bonds and longterm borrowed money in the general account, JFM establishes a management target for the duration gap in order to manage interest rate risk appropriately. With regard to the quantitative analysis of interest rate risk, while JFM does not have a management target for the quantitative figures, it reports the results of calculating the quantitative information, such as the outlier ratio, to the ALM Committee and tracks the status of the interest rate risk. The outlier ratio is calculated by dividing JFM s decline in economic value as a result of hypothetical interest rate shocks by JFM s net assets, including the reserve for interest rate volatility in the general account and the fund for lending rate reduction. The decline in economic value is the largest possible loss in net present market value of its loans and bonds and longterm borrowed money that JFM would suffer following a 9

hypothetical 200 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates. The outlier ratio is calculated based on the following conditions. Future Cash Flows With respect to loans, future cash flows regarding such loans are calculated based on the type of interest rate of the loans. In addition, the advanced redemption in the future is not expected by JFM. With respect to fixedrate bonds and longterm borrowed money, future cash flows regarding such fixedrate bonds and longterm borrowed money are calculated based on the redemption schedule. With respect to floating rate bonds hedged by interest rate swaps, that qualify for hedge accounting and meet specific matching criteria, future cash flows corresponding to such floating rate bonds are calculated in a manner similar to fixedrate bonds. Indicative Interest Rate For the assessment of loans, bonds and longterm borrowed money, the corresponding interest rate of Japanese government bonds as of 30 September 2016 is used. Calculation of Outlier Ratio Based on an assumption that risk variables, except for interest rate risk, are fixed as of 30 September 2016, the outlier ratio is calculated by dividing the change in fair value in the case where the indicative interest rate (government bonds) rises acrosstheboard by 200 basis points (2.00%) or the change in fair value in the case such rate falls acrosstheboard by 200 basis points (2.00%), whichever is greater, by net assets including the reserve for interest rate volatility and the fund for lending rate reduction. JFM calculates the outlier ratio reflecting a rise of 200 basis points of the indicative interest rate as JFM understands that the change in fair value in the case of rising interest rates would be greater than that in the case of falling interest rates. JFM monitors the movement of the outlier ratio on a regular basis, and the calculation as of 30 September 2016 is as follows: Outlier ratio (a)= (b)/(e) Change in fair value in the case of 200 basis points rise in interest rates Total Loans Bonds and (b)=(c)+(d) (c) longterm borrowed money (d) (684,163) (2,207,449) 1,523,286 [(111,192)] [(281,181)] [+169,989] General 22.3% account [+1.9%] Note: Amounts posted in square brackets indicate the change from 30 September 2015. 10 Net assets including reserve for interest rate volatility and the fund for lending rate reduction (e) 3,074,687 [+259,687] With respect to loans and bonds in the management account, JFM raises funds by the issuance of bonds as necessary in order to manage existing loans until their redemption. For this reason, while JFM reports the calculation results of the quantitative information regarding the interest rate risk to the ALM Committee and confirms the status of interest rate risk as is the case in the general account, JFM does not establish a management target or use the quantitative analysis for the management account. With respect to these financial instruments in the management account, based on an assumption that the risk variables, except for interest rate risk, hold steady, for an indicative interest rate as of 30 September 2016 that is 10 basis points higher than the actual rate, it is assumed that the fair value of the net amount (assets side), after offsetting such financial instruments with the financial liabilities, would decline by 26,550 million yen. On the contrary, for an indicative interest rate as of 30 September 2016 that is 10 basis points lower than the actual rate, it is assumed that the fair value of the net amount (assets side), after offsetting such financial instruments with the financial liabilities, would increase by 26,899 million yen. (ⅲ) Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that JFM would incur losses due to difficulties in securing the necessary funds or the necessity of obtaining funds at far higher interest rates than under normal conditions as a result of a mismatch between the maturities of assets and liabilities or an unexpected outflow of funds (funding liquidity risk). It also includes the risk that JFM would incur losses because it is unable to conduct market transactions or is forced to conduct transactions at far more unfavorable prices than under normal conditions due to market disruption or other difficult situations (market liquidity risk). JFM s exposure to liquidity risk is extremely low because loans are made to local governments according to a preset schedule, and the daily cash and liquidity management is carried out based on a quarterly plan for fund management. Moreover, JFM has entered into overdraft agreements with several financial institutions to prepare for the unexpected events, and invests surplus funds only in shortterm financial products. In addition, as new Basel III liquidity standards are being applied to Japanese financial institutions, although JFM is not required to comply with the liquidity coverage ratio requirements of Basel III, as a voluntary measure, JFM has implemented a plan to secure liquidity support assets in advance in order to prepare for potential market disruption which may prevent JFM from securing the necessary funds for scheduled bond principal and interest payments.

(ⅳ) Supplemental remarks on fair value of financial instruments In addition to the amount based on the market price, the fair value of illiquid financial instruments includes a value that has been rationally calculated. Since certain assumptions were made when calculating the fair value, the value may differ in the event that the assumptions change. (2) Items related to fair value of financial instruments The book value, fair value and difference between them as of 30 September 2015 are as follows: (1) Loans (2) Securities Heldtomaturity securities (3) Cash and bank deposits (4) Cash collateral paid for financial instruments Book value Fair value Difference 23,464,589 25,345,598 1,881,009 649,000 538,003 507 649,000 538,003 507 Total assets 24,652,099 26,533,109 1,881,009 (1) Bonds (2) Borrowed money (3) Cash collateral received for financial instruments 19,589,489 110,500 171,031 20,456,421 112,558 171,031 866,931 2,058 Total liabilities 19,871,021 20,740,011 868,989 Derivative transactions (*1) Hedge accounting applied 1,150 1,150 Total of derivative transactions 1,150 1,150 The book value, fair value and difference between them as of 30 September 2016 are as follows: Book value Fair value Difference (1) Loans (2) Securities Heldtomaturity securities (3) Cash and bank deposits (4) Cash collateral paid for financial instruments 23,603,349 99,000 1,111,260 46,217 26,243,652 99,000 1,111,260 46,217 2,640,303 Total assets 24,859,826 27,500,129 2,640,303 (1) Bonds 20,019,395 21,180,386 1,160,991 (2) Borrowed money 145,500 149,301 3,801 (3) Cash collateral received for financial 39,799 39,799 instruments Total liabilities 20,204,694 21,369,487 1,164,792 Derivative transactions (*1) Hedge accounting applied 253 253 Total of derivative transactions 253 253 (*1) Assets and liabilities resulting from derivative transactions are presented on a net basis with liabilities in parentheses. 11

Note 1. Method for calculating fair value of financial instruments and items related to marketable securities and derivative transactions Assets (1) Loans The fair value of loans is calculated by discounting future cash flows assuming prepayment at the discount rate calculated using the Japanese government bond rates as of 30 September 2015 and 2016. (2) Securities All bonds are held until maturity, and the fair value of treasury discount bills is the market price. Since all negotiable certificates of deposit are shortterm, the fair value approximates the book value. As a result, the book value is deemed to be the fair value. As of 30 September 2015 Securities with fair values exceeding the semiannual balance sheet amount Securities with fair values that do not exceed the semiannual balance sheet amount Type Book value Fair value Difference Sub total Negotiable certificates of deposit 649,000 649,000 Sub total 649,000 649,000 Total 649,000 649,000 As of 30 September 2016 Securities with fair values exceeding the semiannual balance sheet amount Securities with fair values that do not exceed the semiannual balance sheet amount Type Book value Fair value Difference Sub total Negotiable certificates of deposit 99,000 99,000 Sub total 99,000 99,000 Total 99,000 99,000 (3) Cash and bank deposits The book value is used as the fair value for deposits without maturities. Since all deposits with maturities are shortterm, the fair value approximates the book value. As a result, the book value is deemed to be the fair value. (4) Cash collateral paid for financial instruments Cash collateral is associated with derivative transactions. The book value is used as the fair value of cash collateral paid for financial instruments since both values are approximately equal as a result of each deposit period being short term. 12

Liabilities (1)Bonds The fair value of bonds issued by JFM that have a market price is based on the market price. The fair value of bonds without a market price is calculated by discounting the future cash flows using the interest rate that would be applied when issuing similar bonds with the same total principal and interest and payment term. Deferral hedge accounting is used for currency swaps, and the fair value of foreign currencydenominated bonds is thus calculated using the total of the fair value of that bond and the fair value of the swap transaction. Hedge accounting is used for interest rate swaps, and the fair value of floating rate bonds is thus calculated by determining the present value using the total of the corresponding interest rate swap accounted for together with the principal and interest and discounting the future cash flows using the interest rate that would be applied when issuing a similar bond. (2)Borrowed money The fair value of longterm borrowed money is calculated by discounting the future cash flows using the interest rate that would presumably be applied when issuing bonds with the same total principal and interest and payment term. (3)Cash collateral received for financial instruments Cash collateral is associated with derivative transactions. The book value is used as the fair value of cash collateral received for financial instruments since both values are approximately equal as a result of each deposit period being shortterm. Derivative transactions Transactions for which hedge accounting is applied For derivative transactions for which hedge accounting is applied, the contractual amount or the amount equivalent to the principal in the contract under each hedge accounting method as of 30 September 2015 is as follows: Hedge accounting method Principal accounting method Hedge accounting for interest rate swaps Deferral hedge accounting for currency swaps Deferral hedge accounting for foreign exchange forward contracts Type of derivative transactions Interest rate swap transactions Receive/fixed and pay/floating Interest rate swap transactions Receive/floating and pay/fixed Currency swap transactions Foreign exchange contracts Primary hedged items Bonds Longterm borrowed money Contract amount Of which more than 1 year 71,500 71,500 1,150 Bonds 75,000 75,000 (*1) Foreign currencydenom inated bonds Foreign currencydenom inated deposits 1,233,354 1,233,354 (*2) 130,000 (*2) Total 1,509,854 1,379,854 1,150 Method for calculating Fair value fair value Based on prices provided by the counterparty financial institution 13

For derivative transactions for which hedge accounting is applied, the contractual amount or the amount equivalent to the principal in the contract under each hedge accounting method as of 30 September 2016 is as follows: Hedge accounting method Principal accounting method Hedge accounting for interest rate swaps Deferral hedge accounting for currency swaps Deferral hedge accounting for foreign exchange forward contracts Type of derivative transactions Interest rate swap transactions Receive/fixed and pay/floating Interest rate swap transactions Receive/floating and pay/fixed Currency swap transactions Foreign exchange contracts Primary hedged items Bonds Longterm borrowed money Contract amount Of which more than 1 year 68,000 68,000 253 Bonds 55,000 55,000 (*1) Foreign currencydenom inated bonds Foreign currencydenom inated deposits 1,467,529 1,467,529 (*2) 91,000 (*2) Total 1,681,529 1,590,529 253 Method for calculating Fair value fair value Based on prices provided by the counterparty financial institution (*1) Since interest rate swaps for which hedge accounting is applied are accounted for together with the bond being hedged, the fair value is presented together with the fair value of the relevant bond. (*2) Since currency swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts for which deferral hedge accounting is applied are accounted for together with the foreign currencydenominated bond or foreign currencydenominated deposit being hedged, the fair value is presented together with the fair value of the relevant hedged item.
